Sleepless Dream

Sometimes when I close my eyes I see us holding hands. We head along the ocean shore, were walking in the sand. We lay down by the water and I have you in my arms. We lay until the sunset ends and then we watch the stars. Your head is on my shoulder as you lay in my embrace. You're humming softly as the moon illuminates your face. I whisper then a silent prayer while looking to the sky. "Lord please don't let this moment end, please keep her by my side.". I hold you until you fall asleep and then the stars are gone. The darkness of the night becomes the morning light of dawn. Awakened by the crashing waves, I gently take your hand. We head along the ocean shore, were walking in the sand.
